our own reflections, to our own selfish needs? here's a prayer and a wish out the universe that humanity will reflect each other and see love, deep in each other's soul.
to some, this point of view may seem very naive, and probably stupid, and they choose to live building on a layers of protection upon themselves, eventually blinded by what is the most precious gift given to us, which is to live freely.
if there's anyone out there who reads ever reads this and knows the concept behind what i'm talking about, there is hope.
take a look - by aretha franklin (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbND69CaJQg)
take a look in the mirror, look at yourself
don't you look too close
cause you just might see the person
that you hate the most
lord what's happening to this human race
i can't even see one friendly face
brothers fight brothers and sisters wink their eyes
while silver tongues bear fruits of poison lies
take a look at your children, born innocent
every boy and every girl
denying themselves a real chance
to build a better world
dear lord, dear lord,
what's happenin' to your precious dream?
it's washing away on a bloody, bloody stream.
take a look at your children,
before it's too late and tell them nobody wins,
when the prize is hate.
natalie cole added an additional verse of hope

oh no, no, no, it's not too late,
we gotta tell all of our children,
that love, love, love is the way...
